The denomination is indicated on three lines (with four-leaf rosettes on the left and right), followed by the monetary unit and the year of minting: ✤ 5 ✤ KOPĒEKŲ 1862. Below is a divider of two ornamental lines with a dot between them. Immediately beneath it is the abbreviation 'E.M.' (Yekaterinburg Mint). - Obverse
The center of the obverse is occupied by the small coat of arms of the Russian Empire — a double-headed eagle. Both eagle heads bear crowns, and a third, larger crown is placed between them. All three crowns are connected by a ribbon. On the eagle's breast is the coat of arms of Moscow — a shield depicting St. George the Victorious on horseback, slaying a serpent with a long spear (the serpent's head is to the left). The shield is surrounded by the chain of the Order of St. Andrew the First-Called. The coats of arms on the wings (four on each wing) are: Kazan, Polish, Tauride, Astrakhan, Siberian, Georgian, Kiev and Novgorod, Vladimir. In its right talon the eagle holds a scepter, and in its left — an orb.
